Description

Nassim Abbaoui with OVHcloud reported a vulnerability in keystonemiddleware application credential access_rules enforcement. By supplying a custom X-Service-Token header in a request, anyone in posession of an access-restricted application credential may bypass those restrictions resulting in elevation of privileges. Deployments that use application credential access_rules, or that enforce token binding, are affected.
